Château de Monségou

Château de Monségou stands by the Agout River, featuring a rectangular dungeon in the north and a slender turret in the west section.

The castle, constructed in the 15th century, passed from the Séguy family to d'Huc de Monségou before becoming property of the de Pins through marriage in 1751.

The sculpted coat of arms on the facade displays three gold huant cats with black beaks, representing the d'Huc de Monségou noble family of Languedoc.

The privately owned castle, located at coordinates 43.602212 latitude and 2.565208 longitude, remains closed to public visits throughout the year.

The castle operated iron forges from Gallo-Roman times until 1860, with the last master blacksmith Jean-Jacques Vieu managing operations before their closure.
